Suggested Preparation: 

Traditional Matcha (Usucha):
Sift 2 grams of matcha into a bowl. Add 70-80 ml of hot water at 80°C.
Whisk briskly in a zigzag motion until a fine froth appears on the surface.

Matcha Latte:
Sift 2 grams of matcha into a bowl.

Pour into a cup and add 200 ml of steamed milk. Sweeten to taste.

Production Process:

Shading: The tea plants are shaded for 20-30 days before harvest to enhance amino
acids and chlorophyll, which deepens the sweetness and colour of the leaves.

Drying: The harvested leaves are dried using a special Tencha drying method, which enhances their aroma and flavour.

Cutting and Sifting: The dried leaves are cut and sifted to remove impurities.

Milling: The leaves are finely ground to 10-20 microns using traditional mills.
